Corrie's Lucy-Jo poses in corset
February 10, 2009 
Coronation Street star Lucy-Jo Hudson has showed off her slimmed-down figure by posing in a sexy overbust corset for a photo-shoot.
The 25-year-old actress played Katy Harris in the Manchester-based soap for three years, when she had a much fuller figure.
But after a strict diet and exercise regime, Lucy-Jo is keen to show off her trim new size 8 figure in the shoot for Closer magazine, where she wears the white corset with black stockings.
Speaking of her new look, she said: "I'm very confident about my new body now and think I'm in the best shape I've ever been in.
"I've learnt so much in the last few years. I feel like I've finally become a woman and have that confidence from getting older."
Lucy-Jo, who is dating Alan Halsall - Coronation Street's Tyrone Dobbs - says that she managed to slim down thanks to healthy eating and the help of her rugby player brother.
